Learn WordPress.com is a step-by-step tutorial that includes lessons on how to start a blog, customize your site, and connect with other bloggers in the WordPress.com community. It’s a great resource for anyone who:

Wants to create a blog but isn’t quite sure where to start

Needs help choosing a blog topic

Wants to better understand how blogging works

Is interested in attracting more blog visitors

Sound like someone you know?

Now you can share the Learn WordPress.com guide via email, Facebook, and Twitter using the buttons at the bottom of each chapter:

You can also print out hard copies of each section by clicking the Print button:

But it’s a bit of a pain to go through each section, so we have a brand new feature that gives you all of the pages in one giant page, so you can print out the entire thing — today it’s about 66 pages.

Congratulations to all of you who have utilized Learn WordPress.com to become blogging masters. We knew you could do it!

This looks like something I could have done with when I started my blog. Having not done much blogging before, I was a bit overwhelmed with all the features at first (e.g. how to add a picture into a post).

Yes, it is a great resource for newbies and will get them off to a good start.

I still remember starting out on wordpress, wasting a lot of time to explore the features and checking out forums for help. The time could have been better used to write great content and commenting on blogs.

I am nearly 77 years old and, with Internet experience since 2005 and computer experience going back prior to that, I came across WordPress and set up three blogs with considerable ease. It is great to be here and the HELP service is exceptionally good! So, to all thinking about starting here I say a big “GO FOR IT!

This post is another example of the support that is given, at WordPress.com. Just recently my brother expressed interest in starting a blog of his own, after visiting my website. This would be a perfect place for him to start. Thanks again for all of the support! 🙂

Although I consider myself immensely cyber-stupid – last year friends urged me to start a blog on either WordPress or a competing site. I checked out both, and immediately thought the far more visually appealing WordPress was the way to go. By nature, I am deeply cynical, but as I fast approach my one year anniversary blogging on WordPress, I have very little to complain about, other than it would have been convenient if you had published this insightful tutorial when I started. Yet, even without the assistance of this excellent how-to guide, WordPress is so accommodating, it’s about the only area of my life that is essentially gripe-free – and that’s high praise from this normally negative New Yorker. WordPress rocks.
